Switch-Hitter is the story of an ambidextrous female tennis player who plays the game with two forehands but quits after the untimely death of her father, a baseball switch-hitter who was her only coach. Enticed back into the game, she joins forces with an older Bahamian tennis coach who ends up moving in with her family. It is a feel-good American story about the obstacles encountered on the way to the top of the sport. In spite of issues including teenage pregnancy, racism, and geopolitical turmoil, will Sheila, our switch-hitter, fulfil her dream of being the first ambidextrous tennis player to win a major championship?

Barnaby Starr is a retired pediatrician and a former member of the Yale University tennis team. He lives outside of Baltimore, Maryland, with his wife, Monica, and a golden doodle, named Ace. He has three adult children and one toddler grandchild.
